New Mexico Poll: HRC: 46% Racist: 33% Johnson: 14%

Former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson captures 14% of the vote for President of the United States in an election in New Mexico today, 10/03/16, 19 days till early voting begins, but that is not enough to derail Democrat Hillary Clinton, who defeats Donald Trump at this hour 46% to 33%, with Green Party candidate Jill Stein finishing 4th behind Johnson at 2%, according to a SurveyUSA poll conducted for KOB-TV, the Hubbard Broadcasting station in Albuquerque.

Trump carries white voters by a nominal 2 percentage points, 42% to 40%, but Clinton buries Trump among New Mexico's Latino voters, 52% to 21%. Clinton holds 83% of the Democratic base, compared to just 76% of Republican who stand with Trump. Johnson siphons 24% of the Independent vote, where Clinton manages 35% to Trump's 29%. Clinton leads among college-educated whites by 22 points. She leads among suburban women by 21 points. She leads among the most affluent voters by 15 points.

Half of Trump supporters say they are voting "for" Trump, half say they are voting "against" Clinton. By contrast, 66% of Clinton supporters are voting "for" Clinton; just 33% are voting "against" Trump. Of those who are voting for Johnson, 21% say they are voting "against" Trump, 5% are voting "against" Clinton, and 70% are voting "for" Johnson. Voters who say the economy is the most important issue facing the country back Clinton 49% to 31%. Voters focused on terrorism or immigration back Trump. Voters focused on education or the environment back Clinton

But Nate does give them an A rating. As with all polls, I have to check under the hood though (internals/cross tabs).

tRump in Nevada today assailing both Hillary and Tim. He's got nerve. That human pile of lying, racist, sexist, misogynistic Monkey feces.

Very good though
